NORWAY — Find it in Norway during February and March. The work of 16 New England artists is currently on display at Cafe Nomad in Norway. The show, which opened on Wednesday, February 1, will run through Saturday, March 25.
Called Love in Winter, the show invited artists to submit work that referenced the heart and love. Though there are a number of hearts, there are also many other forms, including two embroidery lovebird owls on a small leaf, a sculpture of Cupid’s arrow, a wooden boat filled with animals and birds, broken ceramic hearts repaired using kintsugi, a father’s wartime signature and a crocheted closeup of trees. Mediums and techniques are varied. They include printmaking, crocheting, quilting, mixed-media collage, painting, pottery, metalwork, encaustic, and wood carving.
The cafe will host an Artist Meet & Greet on February 8 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. with a snow date of February 15. It is a chance to see this extraordinary show and meet a group of very talented artists.
